The length of vector denotes magnitude of vector is a TRUE statement.

<u>Explanation: </u>

A vector is denoted in vector diagram with the line and an arrow on the top of the line. The length of line denotes the magnitude and the arrow denoting the direction of the vector.

The vector quantity is described in both magnitude as well as the direction. The direction on vector symbol denotes the direction of arrow points.

Explain why a black and white aeronautical map would be difficult to use
Aneli [31]

Aeronautical maps are usually meant to be used by pilots and air aviation professionals in other to navigate or traverse though the sky. With various elements such as vegetation, hills, valleys being depicted by color coded keys or legend. Hence, the absence of color on an aeronautical map make the <em>representation of elements very difficult</em>.

Visual map interpretation is usually aided by the use of legends. The legend hold the key to the elements which are represented on the map. Usually, a combination of colors and shapes makes up the legend and makes map interpretation easy.

Therefore, the absence of various color palletes for representation on a black and white aeronautical map will make it difficult to use.

Distinguish between a converging lens and a diverging lens.
andriy [413]

Answer:A converging lens is thickest in the middle and causes parallel light rays to converge through the focal point on the opposite side of the lens. A diverging lens is thinner in the middle and causes parallel light rays to diverge away from the focal point on the same side of the lens.

Why does refracting light bend when it enters a denser or less dense medium?
Rzqust [24]

Answer: The light bends because light travels fast but it slows down in a denser medium. For example light refracts in water or it bends after passing through air. When light passes through air ( a less dense medium ) then through water ( a more dense medium ) the beam of light bends because light travels more slowly in a denser medium then it picks up its pace again once it passes. The density of the substance determines how much the light is refracted. I hope this makes sense and I hope this answered your question!! :)

A tourist being chased by an angry bear is running in a straight line toward his car at a speed of 3.9 m/s. The car is a distanc
sammy [17]
If it takes t seconds to reach the car, then the distance d is 3.9t.

The bear's distance from the tourist's starting point is
6t-23

For maximum d, we set the equations equal to each other:
3.9t=6t-23
\Rightarrow -2.1t=-23
\Rightarrow t=\frac{23}{2.1}
so the distance is
d=3.9(\frac{23}{2.1})\approx42.741\ m

Air flows through an adiabatic turbine that is in steady operation. The air enters at 150 psia, 900oF, and 350 ft/s and leaves a
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

1486.5\frac{Btu}{s}

Explanation:

The inlet specific volume of air is given by:

v_1=\frac{RT_1}{P_1}\\\\v_1=\frac{(0.3704\frac{psia.ft^3}{lbm.R})(1360R)}{150psia}\\\\v_1=3.358\frac{ft^3}{lbm} \ \ \ \  \ \  \ \ \...i

The mass flow rates is expressed as:

\dot m=\frac{1}{v_1}A_1V_1\\\\\dot m=\frac{1}{3.358ft^3/psia}(0.1ft^2)(350ft/s)\\\\\dot m=10.42\frac{lbm}{s}

The energy balance for the system can the be expresses in the rate form as:

E_{in}-E_{out}=\bigtriangleup \dot E=0\\\\E_{in}=E_{out}\\\\\dot m(h_1+0.5V_1^2)=\dot W_{out}+\dot m(h_2+0.5V_2^2)+Q_{out}\\\\\dot W_{out}=\dot m(h_2-h_1+0.5(V_2^2-V_1^2))=-m({cp(T_2-t_1)+0.5(V_2^2-V_1^2)})\\\\\\\dot W_{out}=-(10.42lbm/s)[(0.25\frac{Btu}{lbm.\textdegree F})(300-900)\textdegree F+0.5((700ft/s)^2-(350ft/s)^2)(\frac{1\frac{Btu}{lbm}}{25037ft^2/s^2})]\\\\\\\\=1486.5\frac{Btu}{s}

Hence, the mass flow rate of the air is 1486.5Btu/s
